You could fastboot erase boot
and all other partitions
then flash the boot.img with fastboot again.
and fastboot flash all of the stock paritions

Luckily I met you... But I should root , When i root this drvice, i must unlock it.. So if i back up this partition, this partition's contents was changed,
this boot.img is unlocked...This approach seems to not work, right?Finally, thank you for your thoughts.

Do you mean stoc ROM? We need your CID to get it. to find it boot to bootloader and use the following fastboot command:
fastboot getvar cid
If you are unlocked and just want a ROM to flash, all ICS and JB ROMs are compatible.

It seems that you re-locked your bootloader. Can you try to unlock it? it may help restore your phone without using an RUU. Use th following command:
fastboot oem unlock

Because you are on S-ON you need to flash the boot.img of the Rom via fastboot command or
flash 4ext recovery
Enable smartflash from it

hello guys, im new here.
anybody tried relocking their bootloader by using this command?
fastboot oem lock
and does it work and restores warranty conditions?
That command has been tried since the original Moto G and no, contrary to what some people think you can't reset the internal unlock counter. They will always know you unlocked it. If nothing else, they know because you got the unlock code from them. I'm not sure why people overlook this clearly posted sentence when they request the unlock code from Motorola.
"Unless you have a Developer Edition device, once you get the unlock code, your device is no longer covered by the Motorola warranty; in other words, please don't blame us if things go wrong, even if they appear unrelated to unlocking the bootloader."

That command will lock your bootloader again. However, locking and unlocking will wipe your device.
Upon receiving your unlock code from Motorola, your warranty is void; regardless if you unlock it or not. The sheer act of asking for and receiving the code voids your warranty.
Of course, if there is a true hardware issue that is not caused by software tinkering, you can still use that piece of the warranty.

Yes you will be able to get over the air updates after relocking bootloader if necessary system apps and files are not modified.
If you are not able to get ota you could also flash stick firmware images.
Thanks man... I flashed the whole stock rom from xda here only...
Even though I've run the commands to re-lock, going into the fastboot (bootloader) mode shows it's unlocked.
Anyone figure out a way to actually re-lock it?

No, once it's unlocked, the counter will always show an unlocked bootloader. Best you can do is hide the opening unlocked bootloader screen.
In the 1st Moto G i have sucessfully relocked the bootloader.
You can use the command 'fastboot oem lock begin', then flash all files from fastboot firmware changing the logo file to logo-mod.bin (File that have removed the unlocked warning image, because flashing custom logo.bin doesn't check crc or hash when relocking the bootloader), then finish with 'fastboot oem lock' command.
Example:
fastboot oem lock begin
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
- - - rest of commands
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem lock
I don't have tested because i don't have unlocked my g3 bootloader yet.
Just try

I still don't understand the point of all this... why are people trying to go through all the work of relocking the bootloader?!?! There is ZERO benefit to it... your warranty is still void (you don't even have to unlock, just agree to the terms and get the unlock token), it doesn't enhance resale value, it doesn't change the performance, so why all the effort to try to do it?!?!

Hmm... Are you sure? If you are unlocked but otherwise pure stock, you should still get OTAs, if your not then they are most likely blocked server-side not client-side. In other words just accepting the T&C of a Motorola bootloader unlock could not only void your warranty, but also blacklist your IMEI from OTAs as well.
I could be wrong, but I think your "barking up the wrong tree" here... I can tell you for sure that Huawei does it this way since Lollipop, if you unlock the bootloader your IMEI is blacklisted server-side... They are very straightforward about it.

not at all... already flashed official firmware 3 times after experiencing the less battery backup on custom roms. in this 3 times i flashed the modified bootlogo so didnt got the warning of bootloader unstlocked and not able to get the OTA but then again i flashed the official firmware 4th time and without that modified bootlogo in hope to get the latest OTA build no. LPI23.72-65 and it worked i got that update next day... and still its show bootloader unlocked warning... so that warnling doesn't affect the OTA is you have everything stock with locked bootloder.
Can anyone post a modified logo without the unlocked warning? My bootlock is relocked but i wanna get rid of this message. Thanks!
Just to clear up any confusion. There is no need to relock the bootloader. In fact it seems like a waste of time to me...

After I unlock my device bootloader, am I still eligible to receive software upgrades from Motorola?
Unlocking your bootloader does not affect your eligibility to receive over-the-air (OTA) upgrades from Motorola. Upgrade packages to new versions of Android will be pushed to all eligible devices, regardless of their bootloader locking status.

Hello guys, i bought Honor 8 FRD-l09 month ago. After one week unlocked, flashed twrp from emui 5 and lineage os. I want to go back to emui. Can i use the rollback package if i flashed twrp on emui 5 ? (rollback brings me to emui 4.x) Or i want the emui 5 Update.app? Please help!
And if i want to use emui 5 Update.app, can someone post link here? I cant find it anywhere (So sorry for my inteligence and english)

Hi,
I haven't done anything in the way of rooting or custom recovery or anything. I did unlock the bootloader first thing due to the wipe that occurs as part of the process.
How do I relock the bootloader? I did some research and all that I've found so far is people cautioning for past OP devices about the standard relock procedure so I just wanted to ask the question to make sure I don't break anything.
I am on Stock everything so can I just fastboot oem lock?

If yo u are planning on unlocking the bootloader and rooting, then get either the global version, or Tencent (which is Chinese market version) but it has to be on Chinese ROM so you can unlock the bootloader.
if it is Tencent edition with global ROM, just do not buy it.
the issue faced by most who get Tencent edition with global ROM is that the resellers unlock the bootloader to flash the global ROM & then they relock the bootloader.
ASUS only allows you 1 time unlock.unlocking for a 2nd time is yet to be successful.
i am facing this issue myself hence i do not wish it to anyone else.
Thanks bro.

If you purchased the device from eBay or Amazon and it is a Tencent version with WW installed, you may want to check that it isn't already unlocked. There are also some sellers that convert the phone and then lock the bootloader again without realizing it is once and done.

What exactly is it that prevents the Tencent version from being re-unlocked? Do you know? Is the unlock tool coded to reject subsequent unlocks on Tencent? When I confirmed with ASUS that I could re-unlock mine after they rolled it back to factory (WW version not TC), the guy told me you can unlock indefinitely, they just register that you've done it over the internet when you use the ASUS tool...

I honestly don't know if it is some step that is being performed incorrectly or corrupted conversions. I was able to unlock mine again after being sold a converted version, but it also had the original serial and IMEI intact. It could also be a myth left over from the 3.
Thats exactly the problem. They only allow the BL to be unlocked one time. It will stay unlocked after that unless you relock it yourself. Once re-locked, you are locked for good.
Unless someone figures out a way around it, and to my knowledge previous ROG devices have had no such luck.
